D.a.v.e. 1 and 2 are very wise vampires. They know thier real power would end humanity.
Damage dealt increases exponentionally with Combat Strength.
100 CS difference should be about 1600 damage.
200 CS difference is 89400 damage.
1000 CS difference? 7060000000000000000 damage. Just a liiiitle bit over the integer limit.
The most that can be handled is around 450 CS difference, but you'd want to save some space for actual kills.
Does the same apply for negative strength? It should right? If the Combat Strength goes below 0.
So the real question is what is the Max difference that a Vampire can have in values to not go over the integer limits. If they use a standard integer field that maxes out at 65536 for the 16 bits, then anything past about oh 190 in CS difference should fall flat on it's face.
@@walterengler5709 16 bit isn't standard lmao 32 or 64 is standard
@@Illya9999 If you've worked with computers as long as I have .. you remember when 2 to 16 was the max size. Many systems have adopted to 32 or 64 bit now. But back when they rubbed rocks together to create heat, 16 bits was amazing! And integers were limited to 65536 (or 32768 if one bit was used for + or - signing). And we still find people to this day using code that limits items to the old 16 bit standards when they fail to properly define variable usage.
So ideally you want around 330 and 480 combat strength for your vampires?
I laughed when the 1000 cp vampire failed. so funny
Me too, but a part of me was crying on the inside, knowing how much time he spent getting there.
MORTY! Whatever you do don’t turn ‘combat points’ into an acronym!
@@warrcoww6717 haha oh jeez, I'm sorry rick
I think the bug is connected to how damage scales exponentially with strength difference. The resulting damage might have exceeded some kind of numerical limit (my bet is on 10^38, the single precision float limit).
Civ has always had issues with integer overflows.
It's how we got nuke-happy Gandhi.
@@LAZERAK47V2 Not real, that was actually just a myth, it's just that people thought that the general threat of ghandhi ramping up to late game more generally, caused a nuke using ghandhi to be weird, and then the bug reasoning was added after.
@@horserage So what you're saying is that they figured out why the bug was happening after it was identified?
I found an integer overflow in an early version of CIV that I have never revealed to anyone because I enjoyed the advantage.
@@LAZERAK47V2
There was never a true Nuclear-Gandhi bug. The ‘bug’ came about because in a Civ 1 conquest game, players usually saved India/Gandhi for last (since he had the lowest aggression rating, would never declare war on the player, and was easy to get gold from via traders). So when the player finally declared war, India was usually well past the ‘modern era’ and Gandhi would already have nukes as part of his standard army (which wasn’t odd since nukes were classified as air-units).
Still, the idea of Gandhi using Nukes was paradoxical enough that years later, people mis-remembered it as a glitch.
The current equivalent would be saying that Gilga-bro is glitched because when you attack him he always has nuclear submarines… while completely ignoring the fact you always make an early alliance with him and as a result conquer him last.
Sorry if I sound a little different or less enthused than usual, I've been sick for the past like 2 weeks and I lost my voice!! ALSO I'm assuming that there's some overflow whenever the vampire reaches 1k combat strength, a decimal point is moved on accident, who actually knows but i was so surprised when i just bonked the city LMAO. I mean it's fine because there's really no environment where you're going to encounter the bug at the end of the video, but it made me laugh anyways.
Glad to see you back. I've been sick too, found your channel while I've been dealing with some shit, and honestly, you've helped me stay sane, for which I'm very grateful. I just hope you're well on the way to recovery now.
Dude this was a great video!!!
Wouldn't be a Civ game without a stack overflow error...
Hey I noticed when you put map tacks it shows the values of what you will get. Is that not available on console and only PC or do I have to turn a setting on?
@@cowboythomas5904 correct, it's a mod for PC only unfortunately called Detailed Map Tacks
Right when he said "Vampires can rival or even better GDR" I was like- "Oh no, he didn't..."
And then I saw the scout queue and I was like- "Oh shoot, he did... How did they not fix that..?"
"Mali's spawn bias is desert."
Vanilla civ VI: "So we're gonna spawn you on coastal Tundra, yeah?"
This is why the better balanced start mod is a must. Don't know what the devs were smoking with their algorithm, considering Civ V's spawn biases were so much better.
A tundra Mali in one game my casual MP group at the time had is literally what made me introduce BBS to that group 😂
Can you just imagine this happening in a multiplayer game?
That one quiet player that was sitting in the corner of the map not looking like a threat suddenly comes out of his corner with 2-3x 200 strength vampire units and rolls across the map :D
Just sack a bunch* of scouts into it so they go back to dealing 1 damage.
Modern problems modern solutions something something.
(* a bunch = ~250 per vampire)
@@herberthumpeldumpfler7965 TBF that requires you to sacrifice 100 turns even if you have 10 cities all making scouts every turn. In that time, your whole empire will be pulverised.
@infinitytower8957 they can only move once a turn. Just make a wall of scouts
The great vampire scout war
Actually outside of red death scenario all units except giant death robots die nistantly when nuked, so so mr. overgrown mosquito is getting vaporized.
Boe: you will be going on a scouting mission
Scouts: cool, where to?
Boe: Heaven… or maybe hell
Also, the reason you're seeing so many barbs is because someone borked the spawn algorithm with the Barb expansion. They used to operate in a very defined way (Scout your city, spawn 2 melee units and a ranged unit). If they were left alone, they would spawn new units occasionally.
Now, there's no rhyme or reason. They spawn whenever and whatever they want. This is especially annoying with coastal barb camps, as they'll crap out boats ad infinitum and your tools to fight them are pretty limited until you get Catapults (because Archer-class units get a strength penalty against boats and Quadriremes have a range of 1).
If you're playing a coastal civ, it's usually a good strat to build 2 Galleys, one to defend your territory (since you're far more limited in options) and one to explore. If you run up on a coastal barb camp, you're pretty much forced to avoid it, because it'll produce boats faster than you can kill them and you run the risk of getting cycle attacked.
Thank you for the explanation. They really annoy me.
Omg I just had a Sundiata game myself where my neighbor Jay kept converting my border city despite my asking him to stop.
AI ignores promises to not convert cities
@@xzardas541 Which is usually why when I ask them to and they say "lol no" i almost immediately denounce them and then later wipe them off the map
Edward Cullen? More like Edward Killin.
Edward Cull 'em
mate, ur edits are getting better and better as time goes by. hope everything goes as smoothly as possible for u and, of course, D.A.V.E archive the final goal of 100.000 subscribers
When the himbo gets hit with an integer overflow. That was some top kek
I really love such highly edited gameplay videos, but they have so much time put into them, so much effort. Thanks for uploading and gg
this one just took a long time because i was sick for like 9 days and didn't have a voice for a lot of that time haha
19:56 That eleanor of aquitane shot is perfect
It was so therapeutic watching you raze Eleanor's cities.
This is the best Civ Letsplay I have ever seen, for all the right reasons. And no late game drag. Very fun to watch, especially enjoyed seeing all them cities razed with the music, felt kind poetic.
You got me subbed
Great video. Thank you for sharing and for your incredible devotion to the cause. I don't think I could have survived the tedium myself, but thanks to you, I still get to see the results.
A couple years back, I did something less spectacular on a Scythia playthrough. I think my main vampires hit 154 and 138 combat strength. I had to intentionally delay victory until the late future era because I wanted to see a vampire one-shot a GDR, and the AI was in no hurry to send one out to die. Eventually, though, one did come swaggering out, and I got my satisfaction. It was a bit tedious, but it was worth it.
I see that you have taken the path of the exploiter... Spiffing Brit would be proud of what you have done...truly magnificent!!!
No Spiff would be finding where Boes lives so he can kill him. Boes killed the ENGLISH version of Eleonor, not the French version
Now knowing you can only get to round 300-400 CP I wonder how early you can crunch the world
I did it once on stream a while back and got 250 with 2 vamps and just leap frogged them it was ridiculous. I think it was like a turn 160 dom victory
Bro u have the best Civ content - so masterful just toying with the game on Deity. Edits had me lmfao too great job all around.
this was worth the wait! hope you feel better soon! but don't push yourself!
Your edits are fine af, seriously, this crack me up. Hope you're feeling much better now.
Best video yet, I thoroughly enjoyed this. Masterpiece, beautiful
Very funny and brilliant, gave me a big smile, thanks for your effort!
50K SUBS ON YT!!!! CONGRATS MAN :D
"What is a scout? A miserable little pile of secrets!" - d.A.v.e., presumably
i imagine a vampire so buff and big they're basically lump of giant muscle that cant function normally
Double triple like for the last 7 minutes I loved the edits and epic music. Bro you are making such entertaining content can't stop watching your vids!
Very entertaining! Thanks for the idea and grind~
Why not place the vamps together and have one Scott add to them both? 😂
The editing of the Duo of Flowers over the last part with no spoken word otherwise was *chef's kiss*
Amazing video man, great editing job, laughed my ass off, lol.
Damn! I promised myself not to play Civ for a while... But that looks so fun that now I have to try it! Thanks!
Theyre scouting the space between the bricks in the city walls
God tier content with a hilarious twist!
At this point, I need an answer: did a nuke even scratch at least such a buffed vampire? 🤣🤣🤣
16:12 Didn’t expect that Inside Gaming/ Funhaus reference
Himiko and Boes is the ship we all need in our lives. Also what does Dave stand for?
Dangerous.Advantage.Vampire.Eldergod
Boes! You are such a funny fella making fun of the game sometimes. I love the vibe of your streams and videos and just wish you all the best. Thanks for the great content m8
He's back!!!
Great Video man, tried to do the same thing as you but apperently my guys wont strength up.
MY BOI DAVE! I love him so much, what a sweetie
This video has the “Flower Duet” in it by Delibes! I enjoyed it.
criminally underrated channel
I missed what kind of strength Dave 3 had that made it eligble for combat. What was it? This was so much fun, haha!
D.A.V.E. 3 had 179 combat strength (75 base +104 units died near vampire) -- Towards the end it looked like combat strength went up to 205.
Copy pasted from above you. Tipoima made the comment
Damage dealt increases exponentionally with Combat Strength.
100 CS difference should be about 1600 damage.
200 CS difference is 89400 damage.
1000 CS difference? 7060000000000000000 damage. Just a liiiitle bit over the integer limit.
The most that can be handled is around 450 CS difference, but you'd want to save some space for actual kills.
Interger overflow is just a breakdown of the computer when it can do almost anything.
The "Duo des Fleurs"? Ha, I see you're a man of culture as well! 😌
Superb game boes! Really enjoyed it 😂 more silly hacks like this please!
great video
Obviously the third time's the charm & that's why d.A.v.e 3 was The Chosen One.
this is PERFECTION.
Do love the occasional silly. Finding and pushing mechanics to their limit is always fun
The solution is to put a subject stack limit of 50 or so as a hard cap; however, last time I checked the ability was not conventional at all so I don't know if there is a regular modifier to even put a subject stack limit on.
Those poor doggos! Sick build though lol.
learned something new; i had no idea vampires got stronger with the death of YOUR OWN UNITS!
I thoroughly enjoyed this game and I believe it is because you, much like me, have issues. Bravo.
The best “I’m so disappointed” video I’ve ever seen.
I'm a fan of beefing up vampires but I didn't realise they could just stand around and gain strength from other units dying next to them. Can't wait for my next play-thru.
That was hilariously awesome!
Yeah, this is what happens to me when I play Mali. Its getting ridiculous how many barb camps there are in the desert.
This is outright probably the most epic sacrificial rituals I’ve ever seen
You found a new overflow integer limit in civilization! We haven't had one of these since Nuclear Gandhi!
Imma scout so hard. I know every inch of the west side walls of Hong Kong!
All this time I had no idea how vampires worked. Thank you.
The god daves are just too powerful to take orders from the player or to unleash their powers for lousy mortal cities
*Spiffing Brit wants your location.*
TFW Integer Overflow
Lmao vampires hitting the damage overflow, pulling a reverse Ghandi. They've seen so much violence, they've become pillars of pacifism.
Also, is that some Lud and Schlatt music I hear?! Noice
my man ... this is funny
Should have been longer
Honestly I couldn't fathom how it took so long for a creator to make this video. This method is extremely old and very well known.... but crickets in the creator community up until now. Very strange.
I’m 30 years old and the Dave bit feels like your talking to me as if I was a toddler
the civ himbo has returned
The Spiffing Brit would be proud
I love Dave
This was such a funny ending😂
Me, when the vamps were +200: the other civs, they're already dead *cries*
It over 9000
The Giant Death Robot will not be mocked!!!
We are all people and we have faces.
I like hats.
Should have named second vampire as Dave2D
Just saying xD
I feel really bad for both your poor scouts and those innocent city states ;_;
Do you know SirchEz? A LoL streamer known for his Nasus. He has this... catchphrase?, that he does when he stacks with his Q big numbers, like "plus 12!". Well, all i was hearing in my head through all the video was +1! +1! +1! +1! +1! +1! +1! +1!
oh god i forgot about sirchez
Those scouts are taking their doggies to the kennel.
ITS BOES DAY
"Olá João" 🥶
Your two eldest vamps got so bored with watching bloodshed for 3 millenia. Turns out theres only so many ways to kill a person. They've been spoiled by witnessing every death under the sun, every glorious, every surprising, every pathetic death someone can suffer, they've seen it. They see the walls of an actual enemy city and they just can't see the point in carrying out the attack.
This was Hal's time shine, no I mean Sparkle, but you left him out QQ
Doing it for Dave
This is some Spiffing Brit level tomfoolery here. I love it.
What if you had a unit with negative strength? Varus??
DO NOT ABBREVIATE COMPAT POWER
this is attack on titans season 1 - 3
So who wins?
The most advanced unit a civilization can make, after thousands of years of research, a walking nuke.
Or some pale dude with funny teeth?
excuse me that pale dude SPARKLES
@@boesthius Can i help you sir? I'm busy cheering for DAVE.
Do vamps heal from pillaging barb camps? If so that means you can pillage a barb camp and farm combat strength that way right?
Im smoll brain but what he is doing is spamming scouts, having them die next to a vamp and the vamp gets the CS from the death?
lil bro industrialized his entire country just to sacrifice scouts 🤣
Maui would have been a good pick up over Hippolyta IMO. Decent combat strength and you could have fattened up those desert plains no? So close to 50k buddy, won't be long to 100k!
I didn't really show it but I used hippolyta for helping the vamps take cities, as long as the city has a tiny little bit of damage dave 3 could take it with one shot. So I would just attack with Dave 3, then use hippoltya to make Dave 3 attack again and take a city haha
I missed you D.A.V.E.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that says Suguba deeze nutz
Do it for DAVE!!!!!!
